One of my favorite experiences was an assignment where I would have to speak in front of the whole class. This may seem very ordinary, but the way in which my professor framed the project, he made it seem more like an opportunity to improve my presentation skills in front of peers, as it may be something that is necessary in professional life. Knowing that I would like to improve my communication skills, it changed my perception of an activity that seemed daunting, to an activity that would benefit me professionally.
